Enzymes for In Vitro Diagnostics Q&A

  •   We want to improve our assay. How can an enzyme supplier help us?

    Answered January 30th, 2012 by Expert: Ken Murray PhD

    There is constant pressure on IVD manufacturers to develop new diagnostic assays which deliver improved performance and accuracy, but which remain cost effective.

    Enzyme suppliers can assist in this process by working with customers to develop superior products, for example with higher activity or in different formulations, which enable improved assay performance.

    Tests for novel diagnostic markers may require the development of new enzymes. IVD manufacturers may wish to collaborate with enzyme suppliers that provide a custom development service.
